Reply-To: alain@sgi.com-DeleteThis
Does anyone else noticed this, or is it just me ?
Seems like COW web site has been getting much worse lately ever since
they started charging for it !
I had no problem paying the $25 since they do such of good job, but I would
expect to get the same or better service as it was when it was free. Instead
the service was down for a while, their wind archives is totaly busted
(claiming no wind or data for previous day when I know there was some wind),
and sometimes the data seems out of sync. I can't even change the criptic
passwd and you need to type it in more than I care for. And withough tide
information, it make you wonder if the long trip to rio is worth it or not.
Makes you wonder how much to depend on their data to go sail...
